Apple introduced its long-awaited Journal app for iPhone in iOS 17.2. Apple's Journal app lets you record your daily thoughts and activities, incorporating data like photos, music listened to, workouts, and more. You can also set up a journaling schedule. Here's how it's done.
Staying consistent with journaling can be difficult, but your iPhone can make it a lot easier with the new Journal app's scheduling feature. Here's how to set it up.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Scroll down and tap Journal.
- Tap Journaling Schedule, then toggle on the switch next to Schedule.
- Choose the days of the week that you want to be reminded to write, and select a time of day to receive the prompt.
The scheduling option isn't just a reminder – it's about building a habit. So whether it's a gentle reminder notification that you need in the morning or a prompt before bed, you can adapt the feature to your personal routine.
